You need to figure out a different way of asking your question. I would suggest elaborating on exactly what your situation is. You don't have to write a book, but you need to provide more information. I don't think any lawyer is going to understand what you are asking. You want to know how to reduce a misdemeanor to an infraction. You are using the term "infraction" too broadly. An "infraction" in legal terms, is a word that stands for a violation, or breaking the law, or a charge (criminal or traffic.....either one. Or not following an ordinance, etc.). An "infraction" simply means breaking the law. I hope that helps.
